Buy Equilinox

April 26

There are three new species to unlock in this update including meekats, the first burrowing animal in Equilinox! There are also two new tasks to complete and an interesting new rock formation which you can use to add more variety to your landscapes.

The full list of changes in this update is as follows:

New Features

Meerkats! These burrowing animals dig a network of holes and tunnels in their territory and use them for transport and to hide from predators. They also often stand on their back two legs to keep an eye out for danger.

Two new plant species to unlock. Desert grass provides a new food source for desert biome animals, and the marigolds are pretty flowers which can live in higher altitude woodland areas.

Two new tasks to complete, one to do with the eagles and one involving the new meerkats.

A new type of rock which looks rather nice in desert landscapes.

Bug Fixes

When placing objects in the world the placement UI no longer overlaps with text from other UIs (was mostly a problem with the notification UI).

Guinea pigs no longer run off the edge of the world while "Panicking".

If you'd like to take a behind-the-scenes look at how I went about implementing the meerkats into Equilinox then you can check out last week's devlog video:

Also, I realize that I forgot to put out an announcement on Steam for the previous update of Equilinox, Update 1.5! So in case you missed it, there are now flies and carnivorous plants in the game. These plants are able to grab passing flies with their long "tongues" before consuming them.

I hope you enjoy the updates and if you have any questions, issues, or feedback then please do send me an email to thinmatrix@gmail.com.

About This Game

Equilinox is a relaxing nature game which allows you to create and nurture your very own diverse ecosystem of plants and animals. Sit back, start growing, and watch your world blossom and evolve in front of you!

Create

You can start creating your ecosystems by placing plants and animals into your world. Having a variety of plants and trees will make the terrain more fertile and allow wildlife to flourish, while animals will begin to earn you points which can be used to purchase various in-game resources.

Nurture

Every animal and plant has its own life-cycle, unique behaviors and requirements, so you need to ensure that each species is satisfied with its environment, has enough resources, and that the ecosystems are balanced. Healthy, happy animals will live longer, breed more, and earn you more points.

Evolve

The points you earn can also be used to genetically modify your species, allowing you to manipulate the traits and behaviors of your species for various benefits. You can also evolve your current wildlife to unlock more exotic plants, trees and creatures.

Progress

There are multiple in-game tasks that can be completed to gain rewards such as extra diversity points or new content. Some tasks can be repeated, making it possible to farm certain plants and animals to receive a regular income of diversity points.
